Nicodemus (John 3:1-16)

Continuing in our series in the book of John this week, Jon highlights the first verses of John 3 where Jesus has a conversation with Nicodemus about the necessity of being "born again." Jon frames being born again as a spiritual rebirth resulting from acknowledging one's sin and accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. The speaker outlines three main points: who must be born again, how can we be born again, and what changes afterward. Jon also adds in the Old Testament story of the bronze serpent as an illustrative analogy for what Jesus came to do. Wilson, one of the student leaders, also gave his testimony that further supports the message by detailing his pre-Christian life focused on academics and wealth and his eventual conversion after recognizing his sinfulness and accepting Christ, leading to his own experience of being born again.
